We really want to sign a guy for 2 years against his will so that he can walk out on us in 2 years time?
Can't sign any player against his will.

If danger stays, he will be 100% committed to Afc. He is a professional.

No ...I am saying Dangerfield will "willingly" sign a 2 year contract

Think Geelong would put a 4 year deal in front of him ......and if that were the case and we matched ...would mean Danger would have to stay here the 4 years.

Makes for interesting tactics by Geelong

No, TBH it wouldn't surprise me if the Crows have been preparing for life without Danger for a while and Phil would be keen on getting fresh talent into a tired squad and may even be keen on trading danger to get that second first round draft pick. Two first Rounders, a reasonable player, a second round draft pick. It could be a great draft for us if we play our cards right. No matter how this situation plays out for us I think we win regardless.

They will try and get Danger and Henderson to try and snare one last premiership for the golden era. I think they will not hesitate to offer their first rounder and a player to get Danger.
No they won't !......Geelong knows that ship has sailed ...they're in the rebuild with 2-3 premiership heroes to retire at years end

So our squads perfect in your eyes? glad your not running the show. We need to replenish the talent. Our skill level is deplorable. It would be great to get some smooth moving skilful players into the mix.

i think the part in question is the tired squad part, we aren't tired we are just not a talented enough squad. Tired implies we have been up for awhile and tailing off.

Cmon calm down .....we're IMO about 3 players down & another years development

Don't know about you but i'm excited about the potential inclusion :
1. Brad Crouch
2. Matt Crouch (another year development)
3. McGovern
4. ROB
5. Atkins
6. 2 more quality draft picks (will be your quality mids / utilities)

Tired squad .....rubbish ....exciting times !!

No one heard that Jay Z tosser on the Rub today?

Telling Mitch Duncan that he should be disgusted if we matched to try and keep him, because it wasn't in the spirit of FA. Duncan was smart enough not to bite, but Jay Z sounded like he was going to burst into tears - eat shit.

Danger is worth a top 5 pick, and a top 15 pick; minimum.

If the Cats can't produce that, they can't have him, anything outside of that is not our problem.

So he's saying that in reality Restricted Free Agency is supposed to be the same as unrestricted Free Agency .....now that makes sense :rolleyes:

Think you're underestimating a few. BoB is Priddis mark II. Not sexy but a magnet with good hands. Tackles like a mofo. I think you're also underestimating Atkins. Lovely skills which is what we're crying out for.

Basically, yes.

That there is no restricted FA; that it's just FA, and that's that.

It really pissed me off that none of the other guys called him out on that.
So because no other club has matched an offer ....it's unconscionable that any club should :rolleyes:

I wonder if they through what they say

Thats fine and I actually agree with you - reading my sanfl posts shows I'm a fan but right now, they are not playing AFL football and a position in the side doesn't seem to be available to them right now. Some of the non competitive players look like getting moved on. Crouch jn has been the sub option for how long now and everytime a decision needs to be made about him, he is either made the sub or dropped.

He is in front of a number of regular AFL players but gets over looked and this doesn't look like changing anytime soon.

We need them developing in the AFL and showing exciting times in the AFL.

We need the club to have the courage tio fast track them and remove a number of the non competitive players (list cloggers)

The AFL should just remove the resticted free agent part and introduce trade to highest bidder clause.

WTF!!!!!

Have you been watching a different team and club over the past 6 years?

we have won 1 final in 6 years. If we are not in rebuild mode, we ******* should be or we will continue to follow the same pathway to nowhere.

If Geelong want Danger so badly and are the only team that have his best interests at heart, then they should have ******* drafted him in 1997!
Jesus he'd be breaking some solid recently reds if he was drafted at 7 years old!
